,,,~*$%@¶# trains are so constructed that they #¶@%$*~,,,
,,,,~*$%@¶ have to follow a set path. this path is ¶@%$*~,,,,
,,,,,~*$%@ called a "railway", which is comprised @%$*~,,,,,
,,,,,,~*$% of two metal rails, hence its nickname. %$*~,,,,,,
,,,,,,,~*$ $*~,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,~* because the low friction between the *~,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,~ wheels of the train and the rail metal, ~,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,~* there are limits for how acute a curve *~,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,~*$ can be, and even more so for how much $*~,,,,,,,
,,,,,,~*$% the ground under the rails can be %$*~,,,,,,
,,,,,~*$%@ sloped. thus a railway is often not led @%$*~,,,,,
,,,,~*$%@¶ on top of hills, rather through them in ¶@%$*~,,,,
,,,~*$%@¶# tunnels (if they are large), or #¶@%$*~,,,
,,~*$%@¶## artificial chasms. ##¶@%$*~,,
,,,~*$%@¶# #¶@%$*~,,,
,,,,~*$%@¶ there will be trees on the side of the ¶@%$*~,,,,
,,,,,~*$%@ rails, but not too close, or they will @%$*~,,,,,
,,,,,,~*$% be cut down by the railway janitors. %$*~,,,,,,
,,,,,,,~*$ there will be plains, and bodies of $*~,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,~* water. *~,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,,~ ~,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,,~* trains go by day and by night. along *~,,,,,,,,
,,,,,,,~*$ the way, there is information $*~,,,,,,,
,,,,,,~*$% scattered, often put on top of poles, %$*~,,,,,,
,,,,,~*$%@ to be interpreted by the train drivers. @%$*~,,,,,
,,,,~*$%@¶ different parts of the railway have ¶@%$*~,,,,
,,,~*$%@¶# different speed limits. #¶@%$*~,,,
,,~*$%@¶## ##¶@%$*~,,
,,,~*$%@¶# sometimes, trains have to stop and wait #¶@%$*~,,,
,,,,~*$%@¶ for something to happen, far away. this ¶@%$*~,,,,
